Did this after a week of canyoneering. Thunder started as we were heading down.

From Zion Lodge via the Grotto trail  Sucess!

#1 11-13-15 Parking was a problem. Started from Zion Lodge lot. Tons of people. Didn't much care for the asphalt trail but, oh well. Delightful summit area large enough for a small state funeral. Splendid weather. Met a cousin purely by chance whom I hadn't seen in years. My hiking partner was fabelhaft.

Crowded  Sucess!

Beautiful lunch spot but way to many people for comfort. Didn't stay long.

Standard Route  Sucess!

Caught the 6 am shuttle from the visitor's center. One hour to the summit from the Grotto. The crowds were forming on my descent by 7:30 am.

Angels Landing  Sucess!

Fun late-afternoon hike on a beautiful day. We started at 7PM we got up just in time to see the sunset. Back down by 9:30PM (still light. The final ascent is awesome, although I heard people slip and perish on that section.

Angel's Landing  Sucess!

Icy! Without the chains I would have been shot off a cliff.

Anniversary Hike   Sucess!

Hiked with wife and 3mo old baby to the top of Angels landing. Our baby was the star of the hike. We continued along the West Rim trail afterwards for several miles. Slightly overcast and gorgeous day. Great way to spend our anniversary and great hike for baby's first summit. >.<

Only complaint was that I stashed my pack at Scouts lookout while going up to the peak. Squirrels/chipmunks chewed through my pack and ate our lunch. Luckily I had a few granola bars and one pack of peanut butter buried pretty far down under my rainjacket. Be warned - the rodents up there are VERY aggressive. They will go at great lengths to get food out of your pack. My fav. day-pack is now getting new zippers and a new mesh pocket from leaving my pack in what seemed a very conspicuous and populated area for less than one hour right before the "chains."

Too many people  Sucess!

If you could ever do this without the crowds it would be incredible. There were so many people that I didn't enjoy it as much as I had hoped. Still a must do. Views are stellar.

NICE EARLY FALL HIKE  Sucess!

My parents and I hiked this trail early in the morning, only a handful of people when we were there. This could be climbed without the chains, but it is true that a fall would be dire. The views straight down to the park road below are amazing, as they are in every direction. if you like to hike, don't leave Zion N.P. without trying this one.

Nice day running the trail all by my lonesome. Great views as expected. Went early while my family was getting up.

Many visits, just one sign in  Sucess!

Love this hike. LOVE. Go. Do. Be. Don't fall. Best done as part of a backpack down from Kolob to the valley but all routes are grand.

No crowds  Sucess!

I started the hike at 6 am. Nobody. It was a beautiful day. My first hike ever in Zion National Park. Enjoyed those red rocks and orange leaves all around!

Angels Landing - A Zions Park Gem  Sucess!

A gorgeous day. About eight young people on top. They congratulated this old man for making it. The last half mile is more of a climbing route than a hiking trail.
